375 HP '91 Camaro

Anyone ever heard of this? Ran the VIN and it comes back as a 305 car. So I'm calling BS.




it is a 350 but with 348 hp and there was 180 of them produced

Might want to change your listing. The VIN shows that the car has a
305
not a 350, and there's no way in hell that a 350 comes with 375 hp from
the
factory.

It looks like yet another typical yerbasic eBay rip-off.

Isn't it just astounding how there's all these special cars that nobody ever knew of existing, for all these years, that just magically somehow show up on eBay? The trail always seems to lead to eBay. You don't see this in your local newspaper, or on enthusiast sites like this one, etc.; this type of scam depends on uninformed buyers that are deluded into thinking they're getting a great deal on something unique.

You won't get anywhere arguing with this crook, he's out to rip somebody off, and isn't going to back off. Unfortunately eBay themselves make a percentage of the take, i.e. the more the crook gets for his car the more they make, so there's no incentive for them to put a stop to it and every incentive for them to help him perpetrate his fraud.

What a shame.

Well, there's two days left in the auction and it still hasn't broken the $3,000 dollar mark. Not bad for a car with just 82 miles on it. It does look nice in the pictures though.

He later indicates that is actually 87K miles equaling 87000 miles, slightly different story.
